As forest dwellers I braided my hair with
wildflowers beneath the full moon,
while
watching you sprinkle your assortment of magical herbs
into our dinner of deer, salad, and roots.
Tonight I learned of saffron
I was happiest on the coast /
where daily
we enjoyed a delightful mixture of wild onions,
garlic, fish, eel, and crabs, wrapped in
banana leaves
and slow cooked inside salt bricks
placed beneath our fire.
This time around finds us in the countryside,
and you in the kitchen preparing specialties from
many countries /
We eat desserts garnished with edible
flowers sprinkled with sugar, served on
fine lace in demitasse cups.
